Internet explorer and firefox won't load facebook or myspace?

July 11th, 2008 · 4 Comments

My internet explorer and Mozilla firefox won't load these sites. Everytime I try and get on them they just stay loading for AGES and then do not connect. The only way I can get on them is through a website unblocker and even then it doesnt let me accept things. I've tried turning off my wireless internet and the connecting it again and it still wont work :(
I am using a laptop and I also tried using the family computer which uses the same wireless connection and that won't load them either.
Pleaseeee help :( I've tried firefox, internet explorer and safari and it's still not working.

      Hi,
      I believe it has to do with your Java environment. I had the same problem and downloaded the newer java version and the explorer had no problems loading those sites.
      Go to http://www.java.com for the latest java environment.
      I hope that works!

      Good luck,

      I had the very same issue.

      1.) try visiting the sites by IP only (instead of "____.com", type in these numbers:
      facebook - 69.63.176.13
      myspace - 216.178.38.121

      If that works, and you can navigate from there, it may be that your router cached an incorrect IP. Try unplugging the router and after 20 seconds plugging it back in. You could also go into settings dis/enable DNS-masking.

      2.) It could be an issue with computer settings. Check here and see if any of these fit your particular problem:
      http://support.mozilla.com/it/kb/Error+loading+web+sites

      3.) Your computer may be infected with the Vundo trojan. Check here:
      http://support.mozilla.com/it/kb/Firefox+never+finishes+loading+certain+web+sites
      http://bbayles.googlepages.com/antivundo.html

      If you think you may have the trojan you can go here and download a removal tool:
      http://www.symantec.com/security_response/writeup.jsp?docid=2004-112210-3747-99

      It is free from Symantec, but it will scan your entire system, so it may take a while to complete its run, depending on the size of your hard drive. Read the instructions and make sure you're disconnected from the Internet and any networks before running the tool.
